> anyone can build a suicide vest or IED. it's much harder to attribute than a nuke. One of the apartment bombings used RDX, a tightly controlled explosive only made in one factory in Russia. Compare this to the Oklahoma City bombing in the US. It used ANFO, an explosive made from ingredients commonly found on farms. You couldn't blame a random terrorist, but you can point to the mushroom cloud and say "NATO did it" pretty convincingly on Russian state TV.
